ECEN Enabling Team
The members of the team elected at the ECEN Assembly to serve the network, reflecting a mix of nationalities, regions and church traditions.
Working Groups : What issues is ECEN addressing?
ECEN has formed a series of mini-networks or coalitions to look at different
key environmental issues facing the churches. New members of the working groups
are always welcome.
ECEN Assemblies
ECEN holds regular assemblies about 1-2 years where members gather to discuss important themes, review the work of the network and renew relationships.
The Fourth ECEN Assembly took place on 6-11 May 2003 at the Academy of Orthodox Christian Studies at Volos, Greece, on the themes of Sustainable Development and Water.
ECEN Resources Page
We have begun a resources page which
currently includes liturgical and educational materials and information and
updates on various environmental topics. More additions welcome! ECEN's Inaugural Theological Statement
"Why do Churches Care for the Sustainability of the Planet?" is ECEN's inaugural Theological Statement produced for the 1998 Vilemov Assembly. It is not a final declaration but a document to open up discussion. We would to hear like your comments.

ECEN has pages for what the churches are doing on the environment in each country in Europe. Some have quite a lot of information. Others have none.
Why not send us information about activities in your country? Links to Christian Environmental Work and Organisations
